Understand

In this paper, conventional Global QCD analysis is generalized to produce parton distributions optimized for use with event generators at the LHC.

This optimization is accomplished by combining the constraints due to existing hard-scattering experimental data with those from anticipated cross sections for key representative SM processes at LHC (by the best available theory) as joint input to the global analyses.
The PDFs obtained in these new type of global analyses using matrix elements calculated in any given order will be best suited to work with event generators of that order, for predictions at the LHC.
This is most useful for LO event generators at present.
